Текст песни Dirt Road Blues (Version 1) - Bob Dylan

Gon' walk on down that dirt road, 'til somebody lets me ride
Gonna walk on down that dirt road, until somebody lets me ride
If I can't find my baby, I'm gonna run away and hide

I been pacing around the room hoping maybe she'd come back
Pacing 'round the floor hoping maybe she'd come back
I been praying for salvation
I been hanging 'round in a one-room country shack

Gon' walk on down that dirt road until my eyes begin to bleed
Gon' walk on down that dirt road until my eyes begin to bleed
'Til there's nothing left to see
'Til the chains have been shattered and I've been freed

Well, right up ahead, I see a patch of light
I'm wondering why the flowers of the trees are so white
People all around me, dropping like flies
I got the miseries of the world in my eyes

Well, I've been slidin' on flat ground
Watching the colors up above
Rolling through the rain and hail
Looking for the sunny side of love

I'll walk on down that dirt road, until everything turns real
Gonna walk on down that dirt road, until everything turns real
But I'll keep on walking, 'til there's nothing left to feel

Well, I'm carrying an umbrella and I'm using it for a cane
I've seen the houses of the holy, boys, and the palaces of pain
Well, I'm all dressed up and I'm never late
It's all I can do to keep my head on straight

I've been slidin' through the sea of mud
Feelin' like my brain turned into sand
And I'm gon' keep on walking, 'til I know just exactly where I stand

Gon' walk on down that dirt road, until everything becomes the same
Gon' walk on down that dirt road, 'til everything becomes the same
I'm gonna keep on walking, 'til I hear her holler out my name
